Steady as She Goes
I tried to grab on
A young man who's too little
I couldn't fit my fingers 'round
The palms of her hands
So I grabbed the neck
Of the fiddle
And it's a slight laugh
When I least expect it
That causes me to buckle
My dignity is weak
So I try to protect it
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Lean on all you need
The napkin in my lunchbox
Said, "Try your best and that's all you need"
I did, ma, I tried
But the sparkle in her eyes
Vanished with the leaves
Sometimes I wish
That school would've taught me
Not how to win
But how to sit down with defeat
And enjoy her company
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Lean on all you need
She puts on her wings
Flies to a better place
And now she can breathe
'Cause she has her space
I am trapped
In a vacuum room
Breathing my air
Waving the moon
Goodbye
A young man who's too little
I couldn't fit my fingers 'round
The palms of her hands
So I grabbed the neck
Of the fiddle
And it's a slight laugh
When I least expect it
That causes me to buckle
My dignity is weak
So I try to protect it
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Lean on all you need
The napkin in my lunchbox
Said, "Try your best and that's all you need"
I did, ma, I tried
But the sparkle in her eyes
Vanished with the leaves
Sometimes I wish
That school would've taught me
Not how to win
But how to sit down with defeat
And enjoy her company
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Lean on all you need
She puts on her wings
Flies to a better place
And now she can breathe
'Cause she has her space
I am trapped
In a vacuum room
Breathing my air
Waving the moon
Goodbye
